summit x650

hello,

I'am going to purchase x650 as a main switch for our central site.
Well, in fact - 2x x650, the second will be our on site insurance.

Do you have any positive/negative issues that you could share with me to
encourage/discourage me for this puchase ?

At the moment, the biggest issue that I have found is size.. 65cm deep..


Will this switch work with any (non extreme SFP/SFP+ modules) ?
How about stacking x650 using default stacking module ?
I will use mostly 1G SFP this year, however new router will appear in
2011 so 10G will be utilized then.
However, in 2010, mostly 1G so I wonder if such stacking is possible.

Any hardware fault issues that you can share with ?

Regards,
Marcin

Re: summit x650 [In reply to]

Hi Marcin,

we are a Extreme Partner in Germany and we have some customers asking for the x650.

I like the product, because it's a very good 10GE Switch with a lot of features for a good price.

http://www.extremenetworks.com/libraries/products/DSSumX650_1442.pdf

In the datasheet you find more information about. I think you know this already. Maybe that helps. There you find a list of SFPs.

It is possible to start with 1 GE and change later to 10 GE SFPs.

If you talk about Staking. What do you mean? Do you mean the Stacking feature with a special Stack cable?

If you habe more switches and you need redundancy ways EAPS is very interesting.

A other very nice feature new is clearflow. You can configure a rule and create some actions if that rule is fulfilled. (for example: You can check the bandwidth on a port and send a SNMP trap is a special level is reached, or you can shutdown the port or you can do something else ... :-) This is very useful for troubleshooting, monitoring and analyzing the network.

If you need more information, send me a mail. I hope that helps a little.

Best regards,

Peer
